I forgot to mention that I lurk 99 0n used swamp
land. So I never looked at the "new" sections of B&H
or elsewhere. New stuff is to rich for me. I like
stuff with a smell and a patina (no fungus though just
mushrooms on my pizza)

Yeow on the price. Did Oly make a 1.5x (1 stop loss)
teleconverter or was it only the 1.4x and the 2x.

Just the 1.4 and the 2. Since the 1.4 is so much more than the 2 in cost, I always assumed that it had some VERY special glass in it. If you check out Gary Reese's tests of telephotos with 1.4 & 2, and without it appears that it may be worth the cost.
